Has EA been developing for Project Café since August 2010?
A listing on LinkedIn (dug up by PixlBit) seems to confirm some very interesting information. Timothy Randall, a programmer at EA, apparently worked on audio support for an “unannounced Nintendo platform” as far back as August 2010.

Third set of ‘Project Café’ pictures leaks out
